I embrace the silent night,
With cool wind blowing,
Bright moonlight,
And shimmering stars.

I embrace the silent night,
With the snoring of the rich,
The laughter of the poor,
And the cries of the children.

I embrace the silent night,
With dreams that echo loudly,
Obsessed with love,
With the homeless of streets.

I embrace the silent night,
Despite the noisy vacuum,
Where darkness overwhelms the light,
But I fight for justice till the end.

                                            โ€ฆ.

(Self-translation from Ruyankore)
